I would go with the the most efficient miners, rather than saving a few bucks on older technology. This will keep you in the game longer when difficulty increases.
You'll have to underclock sp20s or wait till chinese new year is over to buy s5's from bitmain. Or just completely wait for some s6's |

I don't know if you'd be interested in $40 shipped, but i'll try and help get some attention for ya.
I know it is really low, but it is just a starting point for anyone else interested.

I have a batch of 15 Bitmain Antminer S3 units to sell. They are just a few months old and are in excellent condition!
They are clocked at 237.5M and are 100% stable at 477ghs!
I will ship anywhere in the U.S - they will ship in the original Bitmain box.
If you are in Utah, you can come and get it.
Asking $115.00 each plus shipping.
Any questions or photos of the unit (hardware and stats screen), let me know. Thanks for looking!
I would say that especially considering that you a very new to the forum as well as the fact that you have no trading history that you would probably want to provide proof the miners exist (eg post pictures of the miners next to something with today's date on it), as well as proof they actually work (eg point them to eligius and sign a message with the address they are mining on). I also think your price is somewhat high considering how saturated the market is with S5s and SP20s right now Also an escrow would be good I would hope that escrow would be implied. It would be ridiculous to think that it would be a good idea to send funds first to a newbie. You really never know what to expect from people tho. You hope for the best |

I laugh at people that risk it for a 100% scam type. I would rather dice with those funds.

Beautiful wallet, if you want to have an epileptic seizure, that is.
It's nice to see that after cashing in more than 200 BTC on a historic Pump that left investors broke, the team at least spent 0.50 BTC on a worthless consolation prize, called Blue wallet.
Thank you Dev's or Devils.
You sound like you didn't see this coming. It has happened with XPY paycoin before... everyone cashes out right away |

you can easily get $40 but not many people will do $1 USD to $1 worth of bitcoin. |

If you're looking at hardware-based mining (which is where 90% of my Bitcoin comes from) then I would also recommend Bitmain (S5) and Spondoolies (SP20). If you're looking at cloud mining, my recommendation so far is Genesis Mining. I wrote a review for Genesis Mining on my new cloud mining review site. I just put this up as an information resource to prevent people from getting sucked into ponzi schemes like PBMining. If you do hardware mining, Bitmain and spondoolies are very trusted. If you do cloud mining, do heavy research into making sure they won't run with your bitcoins. There are many threads in bitcointalk that'll help you. |

you can run about 150TH at 1w/gh with that feed.
if you're smart, you buy used miners at no more than $100-150 per TH
then spend about $30k on miners
boom, $6-10k a month after electricity - rent (hopefully less than 2k)
you MIGHT ROI in 3-5 months, then it's profit.
you can host, but that market is becoming saturated. So you can do a mix of hosting and mining.
You could probably do even better energy efficiency with some s3's, Bitmain might have something left, or look around bitcointalk forum. |

Well we will have that .000009 BTC barrier to break through for pricing  |

So after some research, it looks like the one way to set this up would be a small percentage, 4%. This would include an escrow to hold funds and draw the number. 2% going to each party. Then 1% of the 2% that I would receive could go to the water project, because they accept bitcoins https://thewaterproject.org/donate-bitcoinIf anyone is interested in escrowing or the raffle please speak up. Another way could be escrow holding funds, then going on a site like primedice, using my dice account to generate one roll w/ full screen video capture. Then the last digit would be used to determine a winner. i.e. 0.01 would meant ticket #1 wins If anyone has comments or questions, that would be nice. |

Can I run miner with my laptop!!! and which one is best mining company??
You could, but you wouldn't make anything, maybe .000001 a day, even though you'd burn out your laptop before you see anything worthwhile. Best mining companies are Bitmaintech and Spondoolies. there are many others, but most likely if it is too good to be true, under .5w/GH, you should wait for real hardware reviews. Also never pre-order. |

use an offline wallet if you're gonna have big amounts otherwise coinbase works , your coins are lost. if you want to i could refund your btc just give me an adress : >
coinbase is also based in San Francisco, so it might be easy to claim theft with authorities. As long as you have proof. |

Someone rolled 10000 so far? Any tips from anyone on how to get referrals?
Purchase an ad on other faucets Best I've done is 9905 |

Nobody is going to take part in this for several reasons. Firstly, you're not really trusted so you would need an escrow to hold on to the funds (even though it's relatively small amount). Secondly, the fees are too high. Thirdly, the draw can easily be faked by using random.org. Lastly, raffles just don't seem to go down well here. I've even seen them from higher ranked members that sell little to no tickets so there's little chance of this being a success.
The little to no trust is very understandable, I have been through the magical land of the hardware forum, where magical miners just vanish into thin air. If fees were say percentage based, say 5-10% would you be interested? On to the random.org, I can understand that too, maybe a mini video showing the whole screen and clicks and types made? If possible could you link these raffles, so I can see where the possibility to improve on is? Thanks Thanks for all the helpful posts too, it helps see where the holes are. I wouldn't be interested but 5-10% is reasonable, though I still don't think you'll get many if any people interested. Video can still be faked or manipulated easy. You need a verifiable way really. Just have a search for raffle and see what you can find but I haven't really seen a successful raffle here in a long time. Alright thanks for the advice, trying to look at ways to sign a number so that it can't be manipulated. |

How can we sure that it is not your alt that win the prize? You can always generate numbers in random.org until your alt number wins.
My suggestions to make raffle fair is post the winning number now in encrypted form in your first post.
Could you explain this a little, like use a tool like cryptwin? And yes I can see that problem of an alt, personally it is pathetic, but I can see that problem would bother people. there will never be any interest in this project. fee is ridiculous man. yea i read you saying thats the fee no matter the prize but its too riduclous and too small a prize pool. im also sure noone is gonna trust you with the funds either. you may look into escrow services but idk
Yea i can see those problems. If it the fee were percentage based and an escrow was involved, would 5-10% sound like alot to you? maybe overall 7% with 4% to escrow or something like that..

explain to me why youre taking half the raffle funds, doing this "service" for profit really discourages anyone from buying "tickets"
This first raffle was meant to test the waters of raffling on the forum. The fee is flat over any and all raffles in the future that may be hosted by me, i.e. 0.1 BTC tickets, which would still have that same flat rate fee of .001 BTC per ticket. I also didn't want to start too high of a raffle, without many people knowing me, because that would discourage interest. I'm trying to find that sweet spot of balance here, rather than a flat fee, a percentage fee might interest people. I hope this answers your question. If you have any tips for how you think I could improve this, please share. |

So your small fee per ticket is the price of a ticket. So there be 2 winners of the raffle of 2 x 0.1 you and the winner.
I tried to make a small fee that would stay constant if this gets bigger, as well as trying to include the small blockchain costs. |
